Then try saying what you mean and stand up for it.
The fantasy *stories* you write leave yourself an escape route.
The "who me?" card is often played, such as in this case.
Say what you mean if you truly believe it Chuck.
I did! I truly meant to say that liberals don't goose step. Until
goaded, I didn't even mention conservatives at all. However, some of my
esteemed fellows on the opposite side of the fence can't imagine any
statement ever being made that doesn't format as "us against them", so
they simply assumed I was stating that conservatives are goose
steppers.
If I say, "my car is really fast," that's no implication that yours is
slow.
If I say, "my wife is extremely good looking," that's no implication
that yours is not.
(However, folks who secretly feel that their car is pretty slow and the
dear wife is not exactly a supermodel might get a bit defensive. Sorry,
can't help that.)
When I say "liberals don't goose step", that doesn't mean that
conservatives do. (However, folks who secretly feel conservatives
probably do goose step might get a bit defensive. Sorry, can't help
that.)
The trouble here is not what I said, but what some assumed I meant.
Little disco music, maestro, if you please....
Tappity, tappity, tappity, tappity, rappity, rappity, tappity, tap. :-)
You're absolutely correct, Chuck. You are the most middle-of-the-road guy in the
group. Only the Shadow knows how *anyone* could think you were implying anything
about conservatives
